    .TH ASTMAN 1 "Jun 12th, 2005" "astman" "Linux Programmer's Manual"
    .SH NAME
    .B astman
    -- a client to asterisk's manager interface
    .SH SYNOPSIS
    .PP 
    .B astman
    .I hostname
    
    .SH DESCRIPTION
    .B astman
    This program is a full-screen (terminal) client for Asterisk's manager
    interface.
    
    .SH OPTIONS
    .B hostname
    
    The host name or IP address to connect to (TCP port 5038). If astman 
    fails to connect it will exit immidiately.
    
    .SH USAGE
    If \fBastman\fR has successfully cunnected to the manager port it will 
    prompt the user for a username and a secret (password) for the manager 
    interface on the remote Asterisk manager interface. It will then be able 
    to report existing channels (calls). You will then be able to redirect 
    calls to or terminate them.
    
    .SH "SEE ALSO" 
    asterisk(8)
    
    http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+astman
    
    .SH BUGS
    The hostname does not default to localhost.  
    
    Impossible to use a port other than 5038.
    
    The username and password cannot be defined from the command-line.
    
    I mean, what's the point in a man page if the syntax is so simple?
